[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here's the thing - this is not forever. This is because they are newborns. The demands on (both) of you will lessen with time but you just have to get there. Additionally, he will start to feel much more connected to them once they are a little older and can react and do more. Until then, help him and help both of you by getting as much help as you can. You have to get over the hump before either of you really can see what this new normal looks like. [/quote] We originally were going to hire a nanny to help while I was on maternity leave but DH was also offered 12 weeks paternity leave to be taken consecutively so we both decided we’d take our leave together to save money. Now I’m wondering if maybe it would be best if he goes back to work and we hire a nanny a little earlier?[/quote]
